What wades in the deep abyss and lingers in the shallow tides? A young queen fleeing a bloody war to resurrect her mother. An aquatic creature captured by a galactic species collector. A professional mermaid searching for the treasure that will change everything. A siren recovering the pearl that solidifies her place at the top of the music charts. Four heroines. Four riveting stories. In Songs of Seas and Stars, authors Madeline Dau, R. A. Krueger, Chelsea M. Brown, and Katharine Bost weave together stories about self-worth, obsession, and morality. These mermaids may have fins and pearls, but you've never seen them like this. Songs of Seas and Stars is the inaugural anthology produced by the Kaleidoscope Author Co-Op. Their goal is to build a community promoting women authors and discussions about the craft of writing. Kaleidoscope hopes to produce multiple anthologies each year, weaving stories from the familiar to the fantastical.
